Gymnastics: Skill Review
For the last week of the Open, we're adding this as a Coach's Choice skill review. We'd like you to pick 1 or 2 gymnastics skills that you think your athletes most need/want to work on.

We are delaying the Handstand Pushup Strength Test to next week, to save strength for the final Open workout.

If you're looking for ideas, here is a suggestion. (Note: at this time we are unaware of what 25.2 was, so we apologize if this skill was just done in last week's Open):

Take 15 minutes to help athletes practice double-unders or crossover singles. We have crossover singles coming up in a workout soon and today would be a great day to practice.

Level 1: single-unders
Level 2: double-unders
Level 3: crossover singles
Level 4: crossover doubles

After a few minutes of coaching/practice, perform as an emom of :30 on and :30 off for 5 minutes. Pick a rep number target that you think is repeatable, or just practice for each 30 second block and don't worry about counting.

Row Warm Up 
After the metcon, athletes should rest 5+ minutes before preparing for the Row Challenge. Bring the rowers out when ready and dial in your pacing.
Row Workout Prep:
3 sets of 30-second Row
 - Set: Easy-Moderate (65%)
 - Set 2: Moderate (75%)
 - Set 3: Moderate-Fast (this should be your planned workout pace)
Rest 30-60 seconds between sets
Notes:
Remember, this is a 1000m (M/F). Start at a moderate-aggressive pace (80%+) and aim to ramp it up in the final 200m. Don't sell out early only to fall back and end with negative pacing.
